      Sound good ... But can we do it without ever getting any job or profession instead of wasting time working at the diner?

      WAIT! Does it matter what traits she has? Like, can she have the "artistic" trait or "Virtuoso" trait?

      Good idea limiting how the founder makes money. After a few weeks of gardening and 3-4 days of gathering metals, gems, and insects, my alchemist sim made $1.16 million in ~2-3 weeks of cranking out high level elixirs and consigning them.

      There is no way you can limit the ability of the founder to make money without eliminating their ability to make more than a million.
      The founder isn't going to make a million, keeping five children and paying the bills on a 64x64 lot with just a job at the diner.
      Unless of course they grow life fruit and fish for deathfish (never selling either) so they can make Ambrosia and live forever.

      If your Sim writes books ... They can make millions in the matter of a few weeks.
      If your Sim makes nectar ... No problem making millions.
      If your Sim invests in businesses ... They can really make millions ... And so on.

      Did you know that if your Sim buys and upgrades every piece of commercial/public property in Sunset Valley ... They can make upwards of $485,000 every Monday at 9 am?

      In fact ... It takes less than 112 Sim Days for a Sim to max out half the available skills, complete more than a few entire professions, and earn upwards of 2 million ... All the time just napping on a park bench and showering at the gym ... Without Cheating!

      If you make the million then have the children you could do it.

      My only point was that without some limits on making money the challenge isn't going to much of a challenge. If you leave it wide open, the challenge is too easy. Restricting money making to fishing, guitar, and painting might be challenging enough. Gardening though, is pretty easy, especially if you have Supernatural. But then, even with the guitar, $2 million is possible.

      Yeah ... Well my point was that it doesn't matter what limits you put on yourself.
      You cannot limit yourself in the game without taking away options and opportunities that are simply unnecessary to get rid of.
      All my major characters spend the first Sim year of their life on a 10x10 lot with nothing but an all-in-one shower, tent, burn pit, mailbox and motorcycle (edit: and trashcan).

      If you find the challenges too easy ... You aren't setting your goals high enough.
      You don't have to just put limits on everything ... Try to top everything out instead.

      If you think it is too easy to make a million Simoleons ... Then set your goal at 50 million.

      That's really at the discretion of the challenge author, and the challenge player.

      Instead, I'm taking pictures of just about everything I do. :3 Like making friends, the first things I buy, my character, ETC. And I write down everything else...

      Alright, so I had to restart my gmabe because it completely glitched out. But, I'm going to post a pic of my sim on here first. :3 So this will be my sim. Her name is Savannah Sawyer, and these are her traits: Kleptomaniac, Virtuoso, Artistic, Star Quality, and Great Kisser.

      So I have a plan for this challenge - I'm going to save my money and steal what I need from other sims. :3 For example, I'll steal an easel from somebody, steal a guitar from somebody else, steal a bed, etc...

      Cool Idea ... Reminds me of that old Johnny Cash song about stealing a Cadillac in his lunchbox one piece at a time (my dad liked that that song).
